"The intensity of shelling from our side of the rear and logistics support of the Russian army has increased. Including in the southern, Kharkiv, and Melitopol directions. We want to destroy all the support as efficiently as possible, that is, shells, fuel, medicines, ammunition ⦠To break the ties between the operational-tactical control and directly by military units, strike at warehouses⦠In this way, reduce the intensity of Russian fire, bleed them, make them panic⦠and squeeze them out. This strategy is starting to work today," Podolyak said.
"This is a competent, well-planned counter-offensive operation that goes simultaneously in many directions. It is gradual, not shock," he added.
